This is going to be an exercise in criminal craft – in morbid criminal craft, so if don’t like “law and order” type exercises consider this your warning. As a child I loved watching the Wizard of Oz, except for the Scarecrow. I found him incredibly annoying, and a bit creepy. Imagine you’re Dorthy and you’ve been listening to this guy moan about not having a brain for a few days now – he’s definitely got to go. You conspire with the Tin Man and the Lion to off the Scarecrow. What’s the plan? What do you do with the body and what’s your cover story should Glinda start asking questions?
